NOTE. 

The number of square feet of floor space occupied by the 
exhibit of the Department of State is 1,620, about half the space 
necessary for a satisf actor}' installation. This space is covered 
by one table, four by twenty feet in size, on which are displayed 
ten volumes in full morocco binding, twenty by twenty-five 
inches in size, in which are exhibited all of the blanks used in 
the bureaus of the Department, and in the diplomatic and con- 
sular service, so arranged as to indicate to the student the 
method of doing business in the Department, at the embassies, 
legations, consulates, and consular agencies; by four glass cases, 
ninety-six by thirty-two inches in size, in which are exhibited 
original manuscripts of great value and interest ; by ten upright 
glass cases, forty-two inches long by thirty-two inches wide, con- 
taining exhibits of papers, so arranged as to show in concise 
and simple manner the workings of the bureaus, and also many 
forms of treaties and a variety of medals; by a large square case, 
fifty -four by forty -two inches, in which is exhibited a collection 
of rarest relics, such as the sword worn by Washington in his 
campaigns, eyeglasses used by that great man, a sword worn by 
Jackson in battle, a cane used by Franklin, and many others, 
besides some highly valuable jewels presented to the United 
States by foreign governments; by one glass cabinet containing 
a silver urn, a sword, and a pair of pistols presented to Captain 
Hull, of the United States Navy; by a bookcase containing the 
publications of the Department; by two pedestals for wing 
frames; a panel, five by ten feet in size, and a table on which 
is a plaster slab reproducing a treat}' engraven in stone over 
four hundred years before the Christian era. 

WALL SPACE. 

The number of square feet of wall space is eight hundred 
and ten, in the form of two angles of a square. In addition to 

3 



4 Note. 

this wall space there is one hundred and ten square feet on the 
ends and sides of the iron girder, which stands almost in the 
center of the floor space, and which is always unsightly and an 
immovable obstruction in the way of good installation. 

A little more than one-fourth of the wall space is occupied by 
portraits of the Secretaries of State from Jefferson to Hay, and 
the portraits of Livingston and Jay, who were Secretaries of 
Foreign Affairs before the office of Secretary of State was cre- 
ated. Six hundred square feet is covered by portraits in oil of 
President McKinley and Vice-President Roosevelt, a large pic- 
ture in oil of the Great Seal of the United States, maps showing 
the growth of territory of the United States, and the location 
of the embassies, legations, and consulates of the United States, 
and a United States flag woven in one piece of silk, and pre- 
sented to the United States by 25,000 silk weavers of Lyons, 
France, as an expression of sympathy at the death of the 
martyred Lincoln. 

To complete the installation of the wall exhibit it was neces- 
sary to erect two pedestals to support wing frames containing 
valuable and highly interesting original papers. The number 
of these frames is fifty-one, and they contain under glass a proc- 
lamation by each of the Presidents from Washington to McKin- 
ley, with the exception of the first Harrison, who died before 
issuing a proclamation, besides original letters of great interest 
from Louis, King of France; Jerome Bonaparte, King of West- 
phalia; Christian VII, King of Denmark, and others. The 
sides of the girder are also utilized for displa3dng framed papers, 
and the ends are used for wing frames. By these expedients, 
and the use of a panel ten by five feet in size, it was made pos- 
sible to install the exhibit within the space allotted. The panel 
contains a portrait of Jefferson, the author of the Declaration of 
Independence; a facsimile of the original draft, the engrossed' 
copy bearing the autographs of the signers; portraits of the 
signers of the Declaration; a picture of the house, formerly 
located at the corner of Seventh and Market streets, Philadel- 
phia, in which Jefferson wrote the immortal document; a picture 



Note. 5 

of the desk on which the engrossed copy was written and signed ; 
a picture of Monticello, the home of Jefferson, and of the room 
in which the great statesman was wont to spend much time. 

In front of the panel in a glass case is the desk on which 
Jefferson wrote the Declaration, and which, in many respects, 
possesses an interest equal to, if not greater, than that attach- 
ing to any article exhibited in any department of the exposi- 
tion. 

On the other side of the panel the Constitution of the United 
States is treated similarly to the Declaration of Independence. 
A facsimile of the Constitution as originally engrossed is shown 
with portraits of Washington, who presided over the conven- 
tion which adopted it; of Jackson, who was the secretary of the 
convention, and of the distinguished members of the convention, 
who adopted and signed it. 

An effort has been made to arrange the exhibit logically for 
the purpose of enabling persons interested in the Government, 
and in our foreign relations, to obtain a fairlj' accurate and 
comprehensive idea of the workings of the Department of State 
by even the hurried examination visitors to an exposition are 
able to give. 

I desire to acknowledge the services of Maj. Frank H. Pea- 
body, Mr. John R. Buck, Miss Mary Greer, Mr. F. Van Dyne, 
and Mr. S. Fenton Michael, for valuable services rendered in 
perfecting the installation of the exhibit.
